Chapter 80: Cold Feeling

Hence the day of the Ball arrived, the night skies illuminated with stars, funny it didn’t rain today. Olivia has just finished with my gown, I must say Fayette was the finest in her work.

I stood before the mirror, watching myself, mostly the gown, golden color, an empire waist gown, short sleeves, a very expensive fabric as it glitters into the night, the design of my gown were of butterflies, Fayette asked what kind of design I wanted and I told her, Mother seed to agree with it, as she said ’You must be delicate as a flower tonight, the butterflies will do’

I’m sure wearing this gown you would only see in the hands of one, I was sure to stand out, that was mother’s plan of course, to the fitting I wore gloves but they were milky white reaching my elbows, jewelry to the fitting also, that graced my neck like a collar necklace but thin and not too big, golden dot earrings to my ears, my hair was let down this ti, in a long wavy but arranged to fall at my back only, behind braided with golden pins, I was sure glittered behind . To the finishing touches, a gold scarf was around , tucked into my forearm.

I took a deep breath, taking in my look, I looked like a princess ready for a ball, I wasn’t even sure I was the one standing.

"You look beautiful, my lady, like a princess" Olivia said with a sweet smile against her lips, I smiled at her comnt, exactly what I thought.

The doors opened as Mother walked in fully dressed in her gown, although it was black it had a wonderful design to it, the sa empire waist gown, she was elegant as always, I was sure in her youth she was a beauty, she still was, because she refused to age with her outlook.

"You look beautiful dear... are you ready?" she asked, taking my hand.

"Yes Mother," I said with a bow.

"Tonight isn’t just a ball, I’m sure you know exactly what it ans for this family".

I nod with a faint smile. "Good," she smiled.

"Shall we?"

☆☆☆

We both sauntered the halls, I and mother as we were about getting to the door.

"We might be back late, make sure the guards are at alert," Mother said to a servant.

I took deep breaths, I was nervous, not just about going to the palace but...

I ca to a halt when my eyes caught Cedric at the entrance, although it was dark he was just simply breathtaking, I haven’t seen him for the day, seeing him right now made my heart and mind race.

As his green eyes t mine, I felt like I was lost in ti, he was simply dashing in his formal attire, everything around him was like a sweet inclination before him, despite everything I have co to know about him I was still drawn to him like a thread to a needle, I was surely undone this ti for there was no going back.

I paced to him, in easy steps our eyes remained on each other, was there no way to undo this spell I was under? I have never felt so pulled like a magnet towards soone before, Cedric was like a magnet I keep getting stuck with, this man was consuming

with everything and nothing at the sa ti.

I stood in before him, not saying a word, he didn’t either, our eyes on each other as if trying to read our inner feelings, I noticed his eyes were softer, they weren’t hard like he usually kept them, he had a light in his eyes when he gazed upon , was this man really the Magnus Mint spoke of, the god of vampires?

We were just locked in our gaze like we were the only ones in the entire world, his hand slowly reaching for , his hand caressing my cheek.

"You look stunning"

I felt a blush creep my checks at his complint, his thumb rubbing unto it my cheeks, I close my eyes as he did, I missed his touch so much, but there was one strange thing, his hands were so cold, I shivered, they weren’t warm like they always were whenever he touched , It was like the first ti when we saw each other on our wedding day, his icy touch, was he okay?

Before I could register anything, I felt his cold lips on mine, I shivered at the new contact, why was he so cold? Either way, I kissed him back, our lips just roaming in perfect sync, I missed his lips so much, I ssed up the tingling feelings at my side when he kissed , it was heavenly.

"Nothing will happen to you... I promise" he whispered to my ear that made

shiver, what does he an by that? I looked up at him with a face demanding so sort of explanation. But his looks remained unreadable but his eyes gave off so feelings I couldn’t explain, they seed sad, I opened my mouth to say sothing.

"Ahem!
